Storyline
Featured review
This movie is actually a Hong Kong production
The literal translation of the title of this movie is: An Eagle of Downstream.
Audience needs to have some Chinese knowledge to understand the title of this movie: the phrase "downstream" (Xia-Jiang in Mandarin) is actually a geographical term that include the Nan-Jing, the provincial capital of Jiang-Su province in the eastern part of China, and the surrounding regions located in the downstream of the Yangtze River.
It is very interesting to know that this movie is actually not that great, just a so-so production, for purely commercial purpose, but it was popular in the then Eastern Germany, which was unfamiliar with China.
